I am dumbfounded that a radiologist thought they were MS lesions. How could he not see that?
I am also very puzzled why the 'rheumatologist' I originally saw prescribed Arthrotec for my back pain instead of pushing Tylenol on me? A good friend still says I walk like someone in a lot of pain.
Later on I discovered this doctor was not an actual Rheumatologist but was able to treat patients with diseases of inflammation. I was angry I had been misled.
I have MR corner signs. Wish I could send you pictures of my MRI scan which clearly show them.
There were 11 RBC Count in the Spinal tap along with ESR of 12 (normal). It says the majority of cells seen are Lymphocytes with occasional monocytes and a few neutrophils.
For the Monoclonal Immunoglobulin Serum Comment:
Pattern suggests a polyclonal immunoglobulin increase.
I do not know what this one even means?
CSF Protein of 0.41. Reference range: 0.20-0.40
So because I have 0.01 too much, it means definite MS? I don't think so and that is probably why he got angry when I questioned him.
Still think this is MS? Because I sure do not.
